Abstract

An updated list of copepods from the coastal lagoons of Veracruz, Mexico is presented (Pueblo Viejo, Tamiahua, Tampamachoco, La Mancha, Mandinga and Alvarado); it was elaborated starting from both the analysis of unpublished literture, and examination of 736 zooplankton samples. This taxon included 6 orders, 17 families and 23 species in the zone; Acartia lilljeborgii, A. tonsa, Peusodiaptomus pelagicus, and Temora turbinata ocurred in all lagoons. Arctodiaptomus dorsalis and Eucyclops agilis are recorded for the first time in Veracruz lagoons. Copepods of Mandinga and Alvarado lagoons are reported for the first time.
